Lot #19. Beychevelle 2016

Description: Consists of 3 Magnums, 1.5L
Score: 96 JD.
“I was able to taste the 2016 Château Beychevelle on two occasions, and it showed beautifully both times. This is also the first vintage made in the new cellar. Medium to full-bodied, incredibly seamless and elegant on the palate, yet beautifully concentrated, it offers a heavenly perfume of spring flowers, violets, saddle leather, and blueberry and cassis fruit. A blend of 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot and the rest Cabernet Franc, brought up in 50% new oak, it’s still tight, taunt, and reserved on the palate, yet has the hallmark purity of fruit and balance of the vintage front and center. Hide bottles for 4-6 years, and it will keep for 25+ years or more." Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com, 02/28/2019
Provenance: The Cascade Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $650
